Sure -- just make sure that the address for the list does not work
for  e-mail (alias to /dev/null, e.g.) and invoke listserv directly (pipe
the message with proper headers to lsv_amin). The script would do something
like (this one in something like perl):

         open (MESSAGE, "|/usr/local/bin/lsv_amin -t LISTNAME");
         ...
         #create headers and message and output to MESSAGE handle. #
         ...
         close(MESSAGE);

I have no earthly idea how one might do it on Windows though.
